Streaming & Video

Streaming has become the primary way for us to consume video content. We have come a long way from the stamp-sized, low-resolution web videos of the late 1990s. All content owners and distributors now have their own streaming service, and Netflix is one of the most valuable global companies. Video streaming is putting a lot of stress on the internet infrastructure, and the industry is adapting by deploying ever more sophisticated technologies. An entire industry has matured around the need for more bandwidth, and these players amassed substantial differentiating intellectual property.  

How We Help Clients

Expert Witness

Our experts have helped numerous parties in patent litigation to make sense of the technologies involved. We have opined on cases about streaming, content distribution, edge caching, and related technologies. 

Mergers & Acquisitions

High-stakes transactions require third-party independent experts opine on critical technical aspects of the transactions.  Top experts not only bring their technical expertise to answer questions but also help drive the diligence process and define what questions to ask.

Pre-Litigation Consulting

Corporations with large IP portfolios often need help figuring out what exactly they have and how to monetize it. We have helped patent owners gauge the value of their intellectual property, and identify infringing product targets.
